Muntala Muhammed got his hand chopped off by unknown assailants

A young Electrician; Muntala Muhammed got the shock of his life when his hand got chopped off as he tried to intervene in a misunderstanding.

This sad event happened at Aboabo in the Asawase Municipality of the Ashanti region.

According to Muntala Muhammed; an electrician, some people came to the site where he was working with a senior colleague at Aboabo in the asawase municipality and demanded to see the owner of the house. They were angry and said they wanted to kill him because he had insulted one of them.

Muntala Muhammed said he tried to calm them down; a situation that rather infuriated the aggressors who chopped off his left limb and stroke his mouth with the cutlass, breaking two of his teeth.

“The one wielding the cutlass stroke the first time and then a second and my hand fell off into a gutter, I picked it up and tried to hold it while a motorbike carried me to the hospital” he recounted.

He was rushed to the Manhyia hospital from where he was later sent to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital.

He also recounted that the situation is affecting his life and livelihood. He says he is in a lot of pain and having sleepless nights. He says he is unable to also do his electrical job; a situation that is already landing him in penury.

Muntala’s father has also not found comfort as he is wondering how he is going to fend for the rest of the family without the help of his son who contributed a lot to the upkeep of the family. He called for help for his son.
